Strapped for cash and facing a tidal wave of big-money Republican attack ads, Democratic super PACs are putting an unlikely plan in motion: the Super-O-Rama.

The kitschy name is for a massive fundraising push at the national convention in Charlotte, where Democrats aim to woo elusive big donors with parties featuring live music, open bars and mingling with “senior Democratic policy leaders,” according to a fundraising appeal....

While he stressed that Super-O-Rama is “still in the planning stages — the only thing that has been decided is the name,” [said Bill Burton, a former aide to President Barack Obama who co-founded Priorities USA] it’s long been part of the plan “to have events to raise money where Democrats are gathered.”

Scott M said...-----------Providence is this:'In the new NC Rasmussen poll that puts Romney up 8 points over Barry, Romney gets 18% of Democrats, reflecting the 20% of Dems who voted “other” in last week’s primary. '

-- That's not a fair assessment of the Post Office at all. UPS, etc., email. If anything, the Post Office is failing because the government failed to enforce a strict enough monopoly. It is an idea that is, perhaps, past its prime.

Please provide a "fair assessment" in which you can justify having a BILLION tax dollars lost MONTHLY by the Post Office.

This just sounds like it's going to turn into some deranged bacchanalia like something out of a Hunter S. Thompson-esque hallucinatory bad trip. Like the "Circus Circus" passage out of Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, maybe.

Super-O-Rama? Sounds like a bowling alley. Will the greeters wear bowling gloves?

Nothing will come of this, all the cellphones will be confiscated anyway. And America's Politico will NOT be in attendance, as he has assured us time after time that Romney is just dead meat and chum to Obama, and it's all over but the counting. So there would be no need for Supercalafragilisticexpialidocious-o-rama for Obama.
